Notes

WB

Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 28 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 22 kDa).

Target

Function

Functions as a positive regulator of osteoclastogenesis. Cell surface receptor that signals via TYROBP. Regulates inflammatory responses. Acts as a key regulator of synovial injury and bone erosion during autoimmune joint inflammation (By similarity). Critical macrophage receptor for dengue virus serotypes 1-4. The binding of dengue virus to CLEC5A triggers signaling through the phosphylation of TYROBP, this interaction does not result in viral entry, but stimulates proinflammatory cytokine release.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in peripheral blood monocytes and in the monocyte/macrophage cell lines U-937 and Mono-Mac-6, but not in cell lines of other origins. Expression is down-regulated when monocytes differentiate into dendritic cells.
